The Lucius Pattern Dreadnought Drop Pod has the Shrouded rule on the game turn it arrives. Should the Dreadnought carried by the Drop Pod remain on any part of its structure (including its doors) on the game turn the Drop Pod arrives, it benefits from the Shrouded rule also, as does any unit targeted by any fire whose line of sight passes through or over the drop pod on the game turn of its arrival.
Passengers disembarking from Access Points on a vehicle with this special rule can charge on the turn they do so (even in a turn that the vehicle was destroyed, or in the following turn) unless the vehicle arrived from Reserve that turn.
If a Drop Pod scatters on top of impassable terrain or another model (Friend or foe), reduce the scatter distance by the minimum required in order to avoid the obstacle. If the Drop Pod scatters off the edge of the board, it suffers a Deep Strike Mishap.
Drop Pods and units embarked upon them must be held in Deep Strike Reserve. At the beginning of your first turn, half of your Drop Pods (rounding up) automatically arrive from Reserve. The arrival of remaining Drop Pods is rolled for normally. Once a Drop Pod lands, all passengers must disembark and no models can embark for the rest of the game.
An immobile vehicle cannot move once it has entered play, and counts in all respects as a vehicle that has suffered an immobilised damage result that cannot be repaired in any way. Note that this does not cause it to lose a Hull Point.
